Tin stearate organometallic precursor prepared SnO2 quantum dots nanopowder for aqueous- and non-aqueous medium photocatalytic hydrogen gas evolution

One pot and capping-ligand free pyrolysis of tin (II) stearate in synthesizing SnO2 quantum dots (QDs) and beta cyclodextrin (β-CD) has been used to functionalize SnO2 QDs' surface to render dual functional photocatalytic hydrogen gas production.309
